RT-N66U and RT-AC5300 2.4ghz Wireless Stops Working

abus5000

New Around Here
Hello

I have both the RT-N66U and also the RT-AC5300 routers, loaded with 380.58

I have been having a problem with both routers where, after a while (typically overnight or after several hours) the 2.4ghz network drops off where we cannot get any data to transmit, or very little due to packet loss/hang up.

It works again if I powercycle or reboot the router, but was wondering how I might be able to correct this.
The RT-N66U didn't have this problem until more recent firmwares. But the RT-AC5300 has had this issue since 380. (Original Merlin for AC5300)

I have tried doing a full reset on the router, and reconfiguring but have the same problem.

The 5ghz bands work fine.

Any Guidance is appreciated!

Thanks !
 
Try the available Alpha/Beta versions for the RT-AC5300 or go back to a previous working firmware.
